Description

A thoroughly revised and updated book, this definitive new edition reflects the latest advances in the popular Roy Adaptation Model, one of the most widely implemented nursing theories. Compact and consistent, this book focuses on the essentials of nursing practice and theory while integrating the conceptual framework of the Model into contemporary practice. Standardized nursing NANDA diagnoses are used consistently throughout the book. New case studies are included in all adaptive mode chapters.

This edition incorporates significant changes in both content and organization.

Adaptive mode chapters are reorganized.

Compensatory process and compromised process chapters include new content.

Material on adaptive processes of groups is presented in a separate section.

The nursing process within each chapter is based on the theoretical content of each adaptive mode.

Further explanation of Roy’s philosophical and scientific assumptions for the 21st century and the addition of cultural assumptions are new to this edition.
